Jakes Coins Pillar of the Community United States 735 Posts	Posted 01/03/2022 4:07 pm I found this odd quarter well junk silver hunting, appears to have 1 side that appears either Struck Through Grease / capped die / or damage. For the most part I'm new to errors. I've been collecting for a couple years... Favorite Coin's are Standing Liberty quarters, Working on my type set \| Coffee, Corvettes, Coins & the CCF what could be better? Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD I will definitely give it a look! I've been collecting for a couple years...
